Epic. Wonderful. Cultural. Bold. Complex! Are the perfect words to describe this book, Black Sun has a cliffhanger ending that leaves you wanting and needing the next book ASAP. The book starts strong with a dramatic scene and a bold and intense character, it sucks you in right away. But then the book slows down a bit, the author focuses on BEAUTIFUL world-building. She creates this environment that is so realistic, it felt like I was transported right into the book! The last chuck of the book happens so quickly, I had to go back and re-read the last few chapters because I read it way too quickly! I was anxious to see what happened. The characters are diverse and wildly intriguing, each has a distinct personality. The characters change with each chapter; I loved reading the chapters of Xiala and Serapio (my favorite characters). Xiala is so sassy, I loved her attitude and her sense of humor! Serapio is a very intense character, he was so serious in which I loved!
